Assessing ICESat-2’s Capability for Global Mangrove Forest Canopy Measurements Open
NASA’s ICESat-2 mission offers potential for coastal monitoring by combining its land/vegetation (ATL08) and nearshore bathymetry (ATL24) products. However, the combined performance of these products in environments where both canopy and b…
Creation of ICESat-2 Footprint Level Global Geodetic Control Points Using Crossover Analysis Open
Precise measurements of the Earth’s surface are possible using satellite laser altimetry data, as demonstrated by NASA’s ICEsat-2 mission. Recently, the vertical accuracy of ICESat-2 data has been validated to <3 cm (bias) and <15 cm RMSE,…
Examining CNN terrain model for TanDEM-X DEMs using ICESat-2 data in Southeastern United States Open
Accurate large-area Digital Terrain Models (DTMs) are crucial for many science applications. Spaceborne Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) platforms are often used to create these DTMs as they provide an effective tool to collect surface eleva…
Radiometric Assessment of ICESat-2 over Vegetated Surfaces Open
The ice, cloud, and land elevation satellite-2 (ICESat-2) is providing global elevation measurements to the science community. ICESat-2 measures the height of the Earth’s surface using a photon counting laser altimeter, ATLAS (advanced top…
Validation of ICESat-2 terrain and canopy heights in boreal forests Open
NASA's Ice, Cloud and Land Elevation Satellite-2 (ICESat-2) launched in the fall of 2018 and is collecting vegetation canopy height and terrain measurements globally. In this paper we validate the terrain and canopy heights estimated from …
